ROAST SWEET POTATO & ONION TART WITH GOAT'S CHEESE



Roast sweet potato & onion tart with goat's cheese image

Top buttery puff pastry with caramelised onions and melted cheese for a festive buffet or dinner party winner that you can make ahead and freeze

Provided by Justine Pattison

Categories     Buffet, Dinner, Lunch, Starter, Supper

Time 1h40m

Yield Serves 8-12 (makes 2 tarts)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tbsp olive oil
6 medium red onions, finely sliced
5 tbsp red wine vinegar
100g cranberry sauce
1kg sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into small chunks
1 tsp chilli flakes
2 x 320g sheets ready-rolled puff pastry
3 x 100g soft goat's cheese with rind, broken into large chunks
beaten egg, for glazing
thyme sprigs, to serve
a large salad, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the onions over a low heat for 20-25 mins or until well softened and lightly browned. Add the vinegar and cranberry sauce, and simmer for 5-10 mins more, stirring until almost all the liquid has disappeared. Leave to cool.
  • Meanwhile, put the sweet potatoes in a bowl and toss with the remaining oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper and the chilli flakes. Arrange on a baking tray and cook for 20 mins, turning halfway, until softened and lightly browned. Leave to cool.
  • Reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line two large baking trays with baking parchment and unroll the pastry sheets on top - trimming the edges neatly at this point will encourage a good rise. Leaving a 2cm gap around the edge, spread the onions over the pastry, then top with the sweet potatoes and goat's cheese. Brush the beaten egg around the border of the pastry and bake in the oven for 35-40 mins or until the pastry is golden and crisp, swapping the shelves after 20 mins.
  • Scatter over the thyme, then cut each tart into quarters (or smaller pieces if serving more). Serve with a large leafy salad.

ROASTED SWEET POTATOES AND FRESH FIGS



Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Fresh Figs image

This dish from Yotam Ottolenghi, a chef and an author of "Jerusalem," the beloved Middle Eastern cookbook, takes inspiration from a city where fig trees grow in abundance. Roasted sweet potatoes, along with wedges of fresh figs, are piled onto a plate, drizzled with a green onion-chile sauce and a balsamic reduction then dotted with generous pats of goat cheese. Do plan ahead, as this recipe does require a bit of preparation, but it's easy work that's more than worth it.

Provided by Tara Parker-Pope

Categories     side dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 small sweet potatoes (2 1/4 pounds total)
5 tablespoons olive oil
Scant 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (you can use a commercial rather than a premium aged grade)
1 1/2 tablespoons superfine sugar
12 green onions, halved lengthwise and cut into 1 1/2-inch segments
1 red chili, thinly sliced
6 ripe figs (8 1/2 ounces total), quartered
5 ounces soft goat's milk cheese (optional)
Maldon sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Wash the sweet potatoes, halve them lengthwise, and then cut each half into 3 long wedges. Mix with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and some black pepper.
  • Spread the wedges out, skin side down, on a baking sheet and cook for about 25 minutes, until they are soft but not mushy. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
  • To make the balsamic reduction, place the balsamic vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then decrease the heat and simmer for 2 to 4 minutes, until it thickens. Be sure to remove the pan from the heat when the vinegar is still runnier than honey; it will continue to thicken as it cools. Stir in a drop of water before serving if it does become too thick to drizzle
  • Arrange the sweet potatoes on a serving platter. Heat the remaining oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the green onions and chili. Fry for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often to make sure not to burn the chili. Spoon the oil, onions and chili over the sweet potatoes. Dot the figs among the wedges, and then drizzle over the balsamic reduction. Serve at room temperature. Crumble the cheese over the top, if using.

SWEET POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE GRATIN WITH BLACK OLIVES



Sweet Potato and Goat Cheese Gratin With Black Olives image

Provided by Elaine Louie

Categories     side dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds sweet potatoes or yams
3 ounces butter, unsalted
1 large shallot, finely chopped
3 ounces creamy fresh goat cheese
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 cup Niçoise olives, pitted
2 tablespoons olive oil
4-5 basil leaves, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. If you are using an aluminum baking sheet, cover the bottom with parchment paper or Silpat, so that the potatoes won't discolor and turn brown while baking. If you are using a ceramic or stainless-steel baking sheet, you don't need to cover the bottom. Slice each sweet potato in half, lengthwise, and place face down on the tray. Bake until they are soft, about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.
  • Increase the heat in the oven to 400 degrees, place the pitted olives on a small baking sheet, and bake until they become hard and brittle, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • While the olives are baking, place a medium-size sauté pan with a heavy bottom over medium heat. Add the butter and brown it until it turns a hazelnut color and has a nutty fragrance, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the chopped shallots and allow to cook for about 3 minutes until translucent. Be careful not to burn the butter.
  • When the sweet potatoes are cool, scoop out the insides and place in a bowl. Pour the butter and shallot mixture over the sweet potatoes, and mix. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, going lightly on the salt since the olives, which are added at the end, are salty. Place the sweet potato mix in a baking dish so that the sweet potatoes are one-inch thick. Spread the creamy goat cheese, in shallow dollops, over the sweet potatoes so that the sweet potatoes are clearly visible, at the edges and elsewhere. Bake at 400 degrees until the cheese and potatoes start to brown in some spots, about 15 minutes. The gratin won't brown like a traditional potato gratin; the colors of the sweet potatoes and the goat cheese will still be very present, but the goat cheese will turn beige, and the potatoes will begin to brown a bit.
  • Once the olives are cool, chop them finely, and mix with the olive oil and the chopped basil. Spoon the olive mixture over the sweet potatoes and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, ripe squash and sweet potatoes for roasting. Avoid vegetables with blemishes or bruises.
  • Cut the vegetables into uniform-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help them to caramelize and brown.
  • Roast the vegetables at a high temperature (425 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
  • Serve the roasted vegetables immediately with goat cheese, crumbled feta, or a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

Conclusion:

Roasted squash and sweet potatoes are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed year-round. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and nutritious.
